Welcome to Healthcare Magic
This could be viral fever as a cause. If the platelets fall too low she can be in danger of bleeding through nose, mouth and also internal bleeding which can be life threatening. It is best she gets admitted and properly evaluated and if necessary platelet transfusion be given as per her Doctor's discretion. Let her consume plenty of fluids including fresh frits juice which will help in preventing complications to a certain degree.
